Privacy and Cookies

We may collect, and store the following kinds of personal data:

We will collect information which you give to us via email, the various forms on the website or information voluntarily given to us via telephone or
postal mail. Some information is gathered when you join or sign up to receive email updates.

our details may be stored on a “cookie”. This is a tiny element of data that our site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your hard
drive. This small amount of information does NOT contain any private information stored on your computer.

We use Google Analytics analytics to analyse site usage, how our users arrive at our site, what they do on the site, what browser they are using and on
what operating system etc. However, this analytics data, collected via a JavaScript tag in the pages of our site, is not tied to personally identifiable
information.

Cookies

Like most websites, we use cookies on our site to help improve your experience. These include, for example, cookies for analytics that tell us how
people are using the site to help us improve the information we provide and site navigation. If you do not know what cookies are, or how to control or
delete them, then we recommend you visit www.aboutcookies.org for detailed guidance of how to manage cookies.

Currently we operate an ‘implied consent’ policy which means that we assume you are happy with our use of cookies. If you are not happy, then you could
delete your cookies having visited the site, or you should browse the site using your browser’s anonymous usage setting (called “Incognito” in Chrome,
“InPrivate” for Internet Explorer, “Private Browsing” in Firefox and Safari etc.). If you choose not to use cookies, it may be difficult to use some parts
of our website. For more information about the NATIONAL RENTERS ALLIANCE cookie policy please see our cookies policy.

Social media buttons

On many of the pages of the site you will see ‘social buttons’. such as share buttons for Twitter, and Facebook ‘Like’ buttons.
When you click on any of these buttons, these sites will be registering that action and may use that information to improve their services.
You should check the respective policies of each of these sites to see how exactly they use your information and to find out how to opt out, or delete,
such information.

External web services

We use a number of external web services on the NATIONAL RENTERS ALLIANCE site, mostly to display content within our web pages. For
example, to display images we sometimes use Flickr; to show videos we use YouTube. This is not an exhaustive or complete list of the services we use, or
might use in the future, when embedding content, but these are the most common.

As with the social buttons, these sites may use information about usage of embedded content. If you are not logged in to these external services, then they
will not know who you are but are likely to gather anonymous usage information e.g. number of views, plays, loads etc.

Email tracking

Some emails that we send you have no tracking in at all. Other emails we send we put in tracking so that we can tell how much traffic those
emails send to our site but we do not know who has clicked, so the data is anonymous.

administer the website;

improve your browsing experience by personalizing the website;

enable your use of the services available on the website

My landlord pulled out of my letting contract a couple of days before moving leaving me high and dry despite paying my deposit and us both signing contracts. Sorting this cost me considerable time and
money which the NRA helped me with. They wrote the letters for me and the landlord agreed to pay me the costs I had to pay because of his breach of contract.
